Just picked up a new 2.0 core duo. I want to replace the 1.66 on my E1705, anyone have any suggestions on how I might do this without killing myself or the lapper?

I didn't think you could replace Notebook processors. I thought theyb were embedded into the mother board??
-
Keep in mind you'll void any warranty you have.
-
Yea, I know that. And I believe that you can in fact change the NB cpu
-
It will void warranty. ( http://support.dell.com/support/edocs/systems/ins9400/en/sm/cpu.htm#wp1084976) This is a guide on how doing it.

OMG...you can actually change a processor?! Could you change the processor on my inspiron 8100??
-
Where is the link that says this will void the warranty? I upgraded my CPU a month ago to the 2.26 processor.

Question Dell about it. I understand it as when upgrading cpus, warranty will be voided because the average user doesn't upgrade the cpu. You could have a dell tech come out and do the upgrade, but you will lose warranty on only the cpu not the rest of the machine.

Found the E1705 breakdown and rebuild. Yes, you can upgrade the CPU on this box and, more than likely, it will support the merom cpu.

This dell board is great! It's fun reading.

I suggest a new notebook too!!!
